      Potato peelers exist and they’re the best fucking invention ever. It’s like $15 max on Amazon. The ones for apples work on potatoes too just FYI. Yeah you still gotta cut it unless you get another gimmicky kitchen device but anything is better than hand peeling potatoes imo

        I read some reviews on amazon and they said they were total trash. I’ll have another look, thanks! But yeah ideally I’d want some smart device.

          They’re definitely not all trash. I’ve had mine for like 5 years now and it’s mostly cheap plastic lol. It still works and not having to hand peel a single potato for years is lovely. The only issue I have sometimes is that it struggles with really big potatos but I just buy the ones I know it can handle or cut them in half.

          If you have a kitchenaid you can also just get the peeling attachment if higher quality is a must for you.

          Edit: If it helps, the one I’ve had for years is called the rotato lol
